Bioactive Peptides
The increased consumer awareness of the health promoting effects of functional foods and nutraceuticals is the driving force of the functional food and nutraceutical market. Bioactive peptides are known for their high tissue affinity, specificity and efficiency in promoting health. For this reason, the search for food-derived bioactive peptides has increased exponentially. Over the years, many ...
متن کاملBioactive Peptides: A Review
Bioactive peptides have been defined as specific protein fragments that have a positive impact on body functions and conditions and may ultimately influence health [79]. According to Fitzgerald & Murray [46], bioactive peptides have been defined as peptides with hormoneor drug like activity that eventually modulate physiological function through binding interactions to specific receptors on tar...
متن کاملSelected adjunct cultures remarkably increase the content of bioactive peptides in Bulgarian white brined cheese
Some lactic acid bacteria strains in milk media are capable of releasing bioactive peptides. In this study, we evaluated the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE)inhibitory activity of 180 lactic acid bacteria and selected several Lactobacillus helveticus, L. delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus and L. casei strains that demonstrated strong ACE-inhibitory activity. The aim was to carry out a molecular s...
متن کاملSalinity Inhibits Rice Seed Germination by Reducing α-Amylase Activity via Decreased Bioactive Gibberellin Content
Seed germination plays important roles in the establishment of seedlings and their subsequent growth; however, seed germination is inhibited by salinity, and the inhibitory mechanism remains elusive. Our results indicate that NaCl treatment inhibits rice seed germination by decreasing the contents of bioactive gibberellins (GAs), such as GA1 and GA4, and that this inhibition can be rescued by e...
متن کاملInsecticidal Seed Treatments in Rice
Rice is the staple food for the majority of the world’s population. Globally, rice is cultivated on an estimated 160 m ha annually [1]. Although the U.S contributes only 2% of world rice production from less than 1% of world’s acreage, the U.S is one of top five global exporters of rice [2]. Insect pests pose a major biotic threat to rice production throughout the world. In the U.S, the rice wa...
